Burgin made this (more like colored it), in his MOPS daycare class. The idea is that the child makes the cube and then rolls it. Whatver lands on top is what they say they are thankful for. I couldn't find a similar cube on the web, but a cube can easily be made by cutting two milk cartons and fitting them together. Cover them with paper and drawer or paste some pictures. or use a folding dice template from the web.
This is a test run on Filth Wizardry's Balloon Lightsaber. I didn't want to spend a lot of time making them all fancy if case my 2 year old could care less. But not surprisingly, anything with balloons and a flashlight, he got very excited over.
Note: Not any balloon pump will do, you must use one small enough for the twisty balloons.
1. Use a small yellow paper plate, or color a regular one yellow. 2. Add ears and googly eyes and ears 3. Add strips of brown yarn with glue. 4. Draw a nose and mouth.
After printing, cutting the template and the felt. I glued the turkey head together and onto the body. Burgin was able to put the Turkey's feathers on. I also covered a small pizza box with felt to use as a felt board and store my felt board crafts.
In our Religious ed class, students will each put a feather on saying something that they are thankful for.
